There is a large research community investigating a wide range of aspects of
anonymity. For a current and comprehensive list of relevant papers, see the
I2P benefits from much of the research into Tor and onion routing, but there is
little dedicated research interest into the theory behind I2P, and the choices
and tradeoffs that the network makes. This presents a unique opportunity for
original research.
